LIGHTFOOT THE DEER BECOMES UNEASY THE Green Forest was very beautl lUL It was no longer green save where the pines and spruces and hem locks grew. Everywhere else It was red and yellow and brown, for It was October and the leaves had turned. All day long and all the night, too. for that matter, there was a gentle rustling all through the Green Forest, for the leaves were falling. Lightfoot the Deer was becoming uneasy. It was the rustling of Rte falling leaves that made him uneasy. You see those falling leaves had a message for Lightfoot, a message and a warning. It was that the season of terrible danger for him. the hunting season, was close at hand. All through the long summer Light foot had lived In peace and safety. In i the early spring his wonderful antlers, ■ which some folks call horns, but which . are not true horns, had fallen. Very i helpless had Lightfoot been then, but ! despite his helplessness there had , been no fear in his heart. You see, i he knew that there was no one in all the Green Forest, save Luster Bear, ! of whom he need be afraid. It was ar.

So all the long summer Lightfoot the Deer had lived quietly and tn ! peace while new antlers grew, antlers , larger and more beautiful than those be had lost While these new antlers were growing he kept very much by himself.

ONE DAY IN AUTUMN By ANNE CAMPBELL I CAN remember my old Granddad sitting Beside.me on the wagon, flicking flies From the roan team, his pipe filled with tobacco. Surveying the shorn fields with wise old eyes. And as I looked at him, I heard the creaking Os the off wagon wheels, and knew right well What he would say. He wasn’t much for talking. And he sat silent now for quite a spell. But when he spoke, though I was very little, I knew just what he meant ... I’4 heard loud speaking And bragging folks, and laughed when Grandpa muttered: “The weakest wagon wheel does the most squeaking!" Copyright.—-WNU Service.

which we adhere, if we adhere to them strongly enough, art a rock of refuge in a storm. And the point Is that our principles and our ideals are a possession for whose permanence we are dependent on no other person, on no quirks of circumstance. but only upon ourselves. The older we grow the more we realise that the things which bring us the most satisfaction in life, the solid, substantial, dependable Joys, those which stay and grow with the years, are the fundamental Interests and pleasures like love es family and old friends. These are really the things that count. The most exciting and glamourous life will come to lean and drab days without them. Having them, having love and companionship, life may be very full with little of the worldly possessions. And so bolding to our ideals gives a substance to life, a spiritual strength, which is really life. And people who undervalue their importance are very likely to find too late that without them the soul is Indeed dead. • Wl Syndicate—WXV Scrvlew

‘ L ' IMPROVED'" '’" UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY I chool Lesson By REV. P B. FITZWATER. E>. O, Member of Faculty. Moody Bible I Institute ot Cbicaga I © Western'Newspaper Union. I ‘ ' ‘ 1 i— 3 1 Lesson for August 25 BARNABAS LESSON TEXT—Acts 4:3«. 37; i 30. GOLDEN TEXT—He was a good man. and full of the Holy Spirit and of faith.—Acts 11:34. PRIMARY TOPlC—Barnabas’ Leva Gift. JUNIOR TOPIC—The Friendly Barnabas. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—How Barnabas Used His Possessions. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—In Partnership With God. 1 The explanatory title given by the lesson committee, “Barnabas (A Con--1 secrated Man of Means),’’ is not entirely satisfactory, as It emphasizes only * one of his many excellent qualities. I. Barnabas ths Man (Acts 4:36). His original name was Joseph. When he became a Christian he was by the apostles renamed Barnabas, which doubtless signifies the change from the old life to the new. This was a common custom, e. g.. Simon to Feter and Saul to FauL The name means “son of prophecy” or “son of exhortation and consolation." This shows not only the nature and spirit of Barnabas but indicates that he possessed a. gift of hortatory preaching. 11. Barnabas the Philanthropist (Acts 4:37). So fully had the divine love permeated the very being of Barnabas, that, seeing the need of his fellow believers, he sold his property and brought the money and laid it at the apostles' feet He was In no sense obliged to do this as there was no such binding law of a community ot goods in the early Church. Private ownership of property was recognized (Acts 5:4). 111. Barnabas the Christian Statesman (Acts 9:26-30; 11:19-30). 1. Befriended Saul (9:26. 27). After I Saul’s conversion he came to Jerusalem and tried to join himself to the I disciples, but they were afraid of him. Barnabas saw that Saul was really a converted man. Being a good man he i could see there was good ip SauL To be able to judge personality is the first mark of a Christian statesman. 2. Sent to Antioch (Acts 11:22-24). t Violent persecutions of the Church sent many disciples to the regions about ’ the Mediterranean sea. AS they went i they preached the gospel and chuYches were established. The most consplcuI ous of these was at Antioch, the capital of Syria, becoming the most Important center tn the spread of Christianity. Everything went weil as long as the gospel was preached to the Jews only, but certain of these disciples deliberately preached Christ among the Greeks. They announced to them that God had become incarnated in a man, that that man, after a ministry of love and grace, had died a sacrificial death on the cross, and that salvation was now offered to ail who would accept him. Tidings having reached the ears of the Jerusalem Church that a great work of grace was expressing .itself through the Grecians who were preaching the Lord Jesus Christ at Barnabas was sent to look after it. Barnabas was a good man and full of the Holy Ghost and faith. He. there- • fore, had spiritual discernment and broad sympathy. Those who have grace In themselves will be able to see grace in others. He exhorted them and urged them forward in their work. 3. Goes after Saul (11:25, 26). The work at Antioch so prospered that help was needed; therefore, Barnabas went after Saul. Barnabas thus Introduced Saul to his great work as the apostle to the Gentiles. The gifts of both of these men were needed on that field. Different temperaments when brought into harmony by God’s grace are needed In the church. 4. Disciples called Christians first in Antioch (v. 26). After a year of teaching by Paul and Barnabas the name “Christian” was given to thq disciples. Observe that the name was associated with the teaching. Paul taught the vital oneness of the believer with Christ! therefore, it was natural that the disclplas should be called Christians. The notion that the name “Christian" was given in. derision has no factual basis. It was not said that they were called Christians by their enemies. IV. Barnabas the Dispenser of Alms (vv. 27-30). Because of-the oneness of Christians with Christ and with one another, the distress of the brethren at Jerusalem must be relieved by the gifts of believers at Antioch. The Spirit of God, through Aga bus. made known the coming dearth which was to prevail throughout all the world. The disciples were therefore moved, according to their ability, to send relief unto the brethren in Jude© These gifts had a powerful effect in removing the suspicions of the brethren at Jerusalem. Aa Open Mind Many a man goes through life without touching it at many points. Peo•ple and things do not get hold of such a man much, because he is not interested in them. He is indifferent to everything except his own little specialty —and he very often neglects thaL The man that bolds an open mind toward all truth; that believes that every person and every thing has something of value for him; that, like a bee, goes through life extracting honey from all sources, Is the man that really and truly lives! Cbaage It will be found that they are the weakest-minded and the hardest-heart-ed men that most love change; for the weakest-minded are those who both wonder most at things new. and digest worst things old; and the hard-hearted men are those that least fee) the en Clearing and blinding power of custom, and hold on by no cord of affection to any shore, but drive with the waves that cast up mire and dirt.—Ruskin.

Housewife's Idea Box When Broiling Do you keep your oven door closed when broiling steaks and chops? You will find it much better to keep the door open. When the door is left open there is very little smoke and very much less chance of having your chops burn. It will not take longer and you will find it a far better way. / \ THEjHOUSpVIFE.

Price, of the United States Department of Agriculture, in enumerating small but Important precautions which rural residents often overlook. Doctor Price’s job is to find out all he can about fire prevention and fire fighting and pass the informatidh along" to the people of this country. Precautions such as a handy ladder, he points out, would help to prevent and control many tires in rural communities. Speed is essential in fire fighting, and a convenient ladder makes any roof fire quickly accessible. Frequent use of ladders to Inspect chimneys and flues might prevent manyunnecessary losses, especially during the winter when tires are going. Among small precautions other than convenient ladders are care in handling, gasoline and kerosene, especially in kindling fires; careful disposal of hot ashes; care la using open fires and matches and In burning rubbish: repair of stoves, furnaces, fireplaces, flues, and chimneys not In first-class condition; and frequent inspection of electrical wiring and electrical appliances. Observance of simple precautions, adequate water-storage facilities on every farm and at every rural home, with a well-manned fire truck at every cross-roads hamlet, is the Utopia at which Doctor Price hopes rural America will arrive. In the meantime, one of his suggestions is. to paraphase, "A farm tireman’s best friend is his ladder.”
